Ingredients
Scale
- 4 chicken cutlets
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Season the chicken cutlets generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken cutlets for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
- Pour in the heavy cream into the same skillet and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the grated parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
- Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and fresh basil, mixing well.
- Return the seared chicken cutlets to the skillet, letting them soak in the creamy sauce for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Serve hot, paired with a fresh salad or crusty bread. Enjoy!
Notes
For a twist, try using mozzarella instead of parmesan or roasted red peppers instead of sun-dried tomatoes.
